The Forgotten Asmara

Agatha's decision was unanimous

Agatha is back at work this morning at her shop. Agatha's arrival was greeted with a warm embrace by ayu's best friend and assistant.

"Uchs... Kangen bangett am kamuu tha.." Ayu let go of her embrace staring at agatha.

"I have a gift for you.." Agatha immediately set foot into her study but suddenly stopped.

"Today don't accept guests, ay, I don't want to be disturbed!"

"But tha..." Before ayu could finish her speech, agatha immediately rushed towards her room.

"Sorry tha, inside is already a byan sir. What the hell is wrong with you? you don't look all right. Even the eyes." Ayu monologues astonished with agatha's attitude.

Agatha opened the door of her study, but she was shocked when she closed the door and locked it.

"That..." Byan was already sitting on the sofa waiting for agatha from the morning.

"What else is it?" Agatha stepped towards her desk.

"Tha, I'm sorry.." lirih byan. I wanted to feel the byan to get up from his seat and hug Agatha.

"I've forgiven you. Go today I'm busy!" Agatha opened her laptop trying to take her eyes off byan.

"Tha, let me explain first......"

"No need for a mas. It's all clear! Please get out of my room. A lot of my work is delayed." Agatha cut the speech of byan. But byan did not give up. Byan ventured to explain the misunderstanding between them. Byan got up from his seat to agatha's desk and now they're facing each other.

"The woman's name is romance, she works in my office. I helped him because he didn't have a father anymore and he wanted to work. I did love it, but after I saw you I forgot about romance. Believe that... I just want to marry you tha, give me a chance I'll change and I'll try to love you tha.." Byan.

"Thank you for explaining, but my decision won't change. Sorry for the." Agatha felt pain in her heart. Agatha no longer wanted to believe in Byan.

"Tha, understand I'm just helping romance. I'm sure your heart is so sincere and can't see anyone else suffering? I'm sure you'll give me a chance.. Please tha demi umi, umi loves you so much!" Byan scooped his face with his hands.

"Umi loves me, but you love a woman whose name is romance.. Heeh" Agatha smiled painfully.

"That.. I mean that bujan. I'm sure as time goes by my love for you will grow! And I don't have any feelings for romance. Believe it.." Byan begged again.

"Istighfar mas, we are not a matchmaker. Perhaps mas byan's soul mate is romance." Agatha endured the pain in her heart. I can't believe that until now byan hasn't been able to love him.

"Agatha, help me to love you.. I beg!" Byan begged again.

"Mas byan's explanation is done, right? Accept my decision. I'm sure this is best for us." Agatha got up from her seat and headed out of her room. Her tears can no longer be blocked.

Byan was drooping weakly, all means had been tried to persuade agatha. But the notoriously meek woman did not change her decision.

Byan headed out of the room to catch up with Agatha. However, byan lost track of agatha.

Agatha was gone, only her car seemed to be getting further away.

Watching agatha running out and byan catching up with her ayu grew curious. Agatha was never like this.

Living by his boss to Jakarta, Juna is now struggling with the many files he has to check. It has been three hours juna finally completed his task.

I just nodded my head slowly as I passed juna. He just nodded his head slowly.

After yesterday's incident, juna picked me up at the byan apartment. But on the way we did not speak a word. Juna just kept quiet, so did I. Even when I got there I could not say thank you to Juna who had brought me. My character was too focused on the byan and the woman he was chasing. I'm really curious, what is their relationship? Who exactly is that woman?

Today I know, byan did not go into the office. I wanted to call her but I didn't have the slightest bit of courage.

At lunchtime, I saw Juna sitting alone. I ventured to approach him. I wish I'd gotten some info on mas byan.

"Sir juna, can I sit here?" I asked for permission.

"Please..." Juna replied as he continued to sip his black coffee.

"Emmm... I wanted to thank you yesterday for driving me home." I'm trained to hide my shame.

Juna just nodded slowly.

"And... I'd like to apologize for..."

"Already mara. There's nothing to forgive. You have nothing wrong. That's your right." Juna cut my words.

"Yes sir.. But do you know where you're going?" I asked bravely while looking into Juna's eyes.

"Mas byan's? Heeh!!" Juna smiled cynically.

"Emmm I mean, mr. Byan. Yes, mr. byan..!" I'm so stupid.why do I say the word mas to byan, so bad my heart to juna.

"Are you two that close?" Juna asked and now his eyes were looking at me sharply.

"Oh. That's not! Me and Mr. Byan have nothing to do with and are not as close as you think, Mr. Juna." Answer nervously.

"Why do you look nervous mara? That's your right you want to be close to anyone." Juna sipped his coffee again. But his gaze did not turn from me. I was so afraid to see the sharpness of his eyes.

"No sir. You misunderstood.." I clearly.

"Mara, whoever is close to you I hope you are very happy. I'm sorry I have a meeting today." Juna bamgun from his seat left me.

What does juna mean? Very floating to me. He looks like his sad face. But I can't just guess. Maybe juna is indeed a lot of work because it must replace and complete the work of mas byan.

Now I don't get any info about mas byan. Should I call her? Or do I just visit the apartment? But I'm afraid to disturb him. Let it be, hopefully byan tomorrow has worked again.

On the edge of the lake Agatha stood with both heads tightly closed her face. The fresh breeze continued to blow his scattered hair.

Very tight, his heart was actually not willing to let go byan. However this was the best path for him and byan. Agatha was very afraid that if she continued her relationship one day she would be disappointed even more deeply.

"Moment.... Atha longs.." Agatha kept sobbing remembering her story. Agatha missed her mother very much.

"Well, is Atha's decision right?" Agatha wiped her tears. His eyes are now getting red and swollen. This is the best option and there will be no regrets in the future.
